Note: In order for the Advanced Program Guideto receive the correct listing of local channels and local program information from DIRECTV, make sure you select the correct zip code, cable provider (if connecting a cable TV service) and Area (if using a terrestrial antenna). Refer to Chapter 4, “Setting Up the Satellite Dish Antenna and Terrestrial Inputs.”

HD Receiver and HDTV Monitor

Follow these steps indicated by the diagram following this text.

1)Connect the satellite dish antenna and terrestrial antenna or cable service to the HD receiver following instructions in “HD Receiver and Satellite Dish Antenna with Terres- trial Antenna or Cable Service” on page 2-3.

2)Connect one set of Component Video Cables (one green Y connector, one red Pr connec- tor, and one blue Pb connector) to the back of the HD receiver using the connections marked Y, Pr, and Pb. Connect the other ends of this cable to the back of the HDTV monitor using the HDTV input connections marked Y, Pr , and Pb.

Note: Connect the Y, Pr , and Pb connectors of the HD receiver only to the Y, Pr , and Pb connectors on your TV that are compatible with HD signals in the 1080i scanning rate and that comply with the EIA 770.3 signal standards. Refer to your television owner’s guide for verification.

3)Connect one set of audio cables (one white left audio connector and one red right audio connector) to the back of the HD receiver using the connectors marked AUDIO L, R. Connect the other end of the audio cables to the back of the HDTV monitor using the audio inputs.

Note: This connection allows the use of the speakers in the TV to hear the sound.

4)Optional: Connect one set of audio cables and a video or S-video cable to the back of the HD receiver using the connectors marked AUDIO L, R and VIDEO or S-VIDEO.

Connect the other end of audio and video cables to the back of the HD monitor using the AUDIO and VIDEO or S-VIDEO inputs.

Note: This connection allows you to send standard 480i signals to your TV.

For better standard definition performance, if your TV has an S-VIDEO connector, then use an S-video cable instead of the yellow video cable.

Note: When the HD receiver is converting all signals to standard 480i signals that can be viewed on standard video inputs of TVs, there will be no signals on the Y, Pr , and Pb connectors. When the HD receiver is converting all signals to 1080i that can be sent to the HDTV input of HD monitors, there will be no standard 480i signals to standard video inputs of TVs.
